2014:98, poses a question “what does it mean to have white privilege.” Personally, I never believed in the concept of white privilege so much in the past until the day it hit me. Just last week I went to Montreal for a trip and wanted to take my girlfriend out for a nice dinner. Two weeks earlier, to make reservations, I emailed a restaurant with my full name asking for a reservation. A week passed and the restaurant never responded to me. So I sent another email with the exact same message but changed the name to my girlfriend's. Within a few hours the restaurant was back and my reservations were confirmed. This incident really showed that just because her name was a "white" person's name, the restaurant would allow her to dine there.
